Ok This may be a stupid question but are the Performance Package cars on the homepage for show only or is honda really selling those to people like us? I cant find a price for those cars.

I assume you mean HS's home page?

That's something Honda is testing out. I don't know when they'll actually offer it. They are behind Toyota & Nissan in that area....

Ok I Did a little research. They are going to sell those cars in early 2003. they didnt announce the MSRP yet. I saw this at the Temple of Vtec or something like that. If I said anything wrong, plz correct me.

They are set to release them, but who knows what will actually happen.

I saw specs on the Acura RSX Type-S with the Honda "performance package"... that thing is a joke... with manual and all it ran a 15.3 1/4mile... not sure what mag... think it was C&D or something...

Thats what is so dissapointing from Honda. And yes, Im pretty sure it was the new "performance package"... basically they just added bigger and heavier rims and a small rear wing and some other stuff... makes it heavier... great job performing well Honda:paranoid:
